    What boxers out there do you feel people are sleeping on?

    Are there any fighters out there that you feel people are unjustly sleeping on? If so, post them and explain why.

    I can't help but feel people are sleeping on Andre Berto. If your not May or Pac and your facing Berto at 147, I think your in for a tough night. Even if you do win, it'll be at a cost.

        Saul Alvarez, i think he is a beast for a 19 year old welterweight. he has a bright future

          gamboa.. tremendous skills, speed, and power. people say he has a glass chin because he has slipped or been knocked down but i've never seen him hurt. great defense and offense if you ask me

            It will be interesting to see how Mosley rebounds, and who he does it against. Berto's still an option, and a Cotto rematch is a very interesting fight. A Mosley fight with WBA interm champ Vyacheslav Senchenko is a good fight for him as well.

              I'm still unsure about Berto... His chin is ****, he's way to easy to hit, and he fights in spurts so he could be outworked... He's very athletic and very fast hands, I wish he would get another trainer because he has way to many flaws... Until then I think even some of these Jr. Welters would light his ass up...

                Ding ding ding... Very skilled, he's intelligent in the ring, very good boxer, good reflexes, has good power, and his size... He will put fear in the welterweight division in the years to come

                  I always think people slept on the career of Carlos Baldomir. That kid was pushing dust mops in the streets of South America. Came out of nowhere to win the linear WW title & has victories over Clottey, Judah, & Gatti with 45 victories.

                    True, but they have to watch out they dont do a vargas on him.
